2nd vehicle we leaded Super fast Jim was great
Richie was the best, helped me and my girl get two Camrys!!!
Solid experience.
I’ve been to the Service Department at dozens of car dealerships in my long life. Gettel Service Advisor Melanie (“Mel”) is by far the most competent, knowledgeable and the kindest advisor I’ve ever worked with. I truly felt like my car was in the hands of a friend. Total trust. Thank you, Mel!
My experience in leasing my new 2026 bZ Woodland from start to finish was absolutely wonderful with this dealership and Gonzalo who helped me out. Gonzalo was very prompt and polite, and made sure that I was taken care of throughout the whole process. Getting the deal done took no effort at all which is not normal when it comes to getting a new car. This dealership was on point from start to finish and I would definitely purchase from them again.

Great to deal with on my new 26 Toyota Tundra 1794 edition. Bought this truck online with no hassle deal. They honored the price agreed upon with no issue. Financing dept was easy to deal with and no pressure. I highly recommend them for your next Toyota.
I have brought in recently my RAV 4 and my 4Runner for servicing. All recommended services were performed efficiently and in a reasonable time. They do a great job. My service advisor is Shawn Reyolds, who provided helpful recommendations and kept me apprised of what's going on with the vehicles. Thank you Toyota and thank you Shawn!
Ritchie was very kind, professional and communicative. Brittany in finance was great as well! Five star experience!!
A great experience at this store, thanks to Fernanda Estanislao (sales) and Mr. Alejandro Batch (Finance Manager). Excellent service and professionalism. After visiting more than five different stores, I returned here because of the outstanding treatment and the best offer I received. I would definitely come back. Thanks for everything. 👌🏻
Great Experience! No pressure tactics and very knowledgeable staff. I had the pleasure of working with Gonzalo who was extremely knowledgeable about all of the vehicles I was interested in and explained all the variations. He showed patience and answered all of my questions - I wouldn’t go anywhere else for a Toyota- absolutely 5 stars!
Brought my 2022 4Runner in for oil change. I purchased it there as certified used ,and bought the extended Toyota Platinum warranty -glad I did. During vehicle inspection at the oil change the mechanic found a defective front strut (X-Reas ) and several other suspension parts that were worn. I’ve only driving 5,000 miles since purchase and bought it with 73,000 miles. The service woman Michelle was EXCELLENT! She took care of the warranty paperwork and quickly got it approved and provided me with a new loaner vehicle. This dealership is not the closest one to where I live. I had such a ... Read More

Five stars is not enough for this rating; there should be a 10+ rating.
I usually go to the original Gettel on US 41. I received a call a couple weeks ago from Nikki letting me know the Gettel off SR64 is currently running a special for the month of August, I get there and the level of service was way better than I expected. Granted, they didn't have the Camry I was looking for and was ok with it. They can't control inventory. Later on as the weeks progressed, I received a call from Kassidy stating they have a ...

Recently purchased a new 2026 CHR from Gettel Toyota of Lakeland FL. The entire process went very well! There was no traditional back and forth negotiations. The process went well because of my sales associate, Joseph Brewer and Adin ( sales associate trainee).
Prior to my visit to the the dealer, I communicated what my expectations were regarding my trade, and what I was will to pay for the new CHR. Joseph went to work and was able to get me what I was asking.
After I agreed to the terms of the sale the rest of the process was quick and ... Read More

I had an amazing experience working with Fernanda at Gettel Toyota Lakewood! She was incredibly helpful, patient, and professional throughout the entire process of getting my Tacoma. She made everything easy to understand, answered all of my questions, and genuinely went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable with my purchase.
I never felt pressured, and she made what can normally be a stressful car-buying experience actually enjoyable. I’m extremely happy with my Tacoma and really appreciate everything Fernanda did to help make it happen.

Super helpful salesperson.
I was in the market for my first truck, a 3rd-generation Tacoma, and my first stop was Gettel Toyota of Lakewood. I met Ken when I walked in and went for a test drive. That first Tacoma had a chip in the windshield right in front of the driver, which was an immediate turnoff, and it also seemed to have a rough idle, so I passed.
I then went to Gettel Toyota of Bradenton and, unfortunately, had a pretty painful experience. I dealt with the sales rep and about 10 different people coming over trying to negotiate a deal. That truck ... Read More

I recently purchased a used 2021 Tacoma from Gettel Toyota and was very pleased with the experience and outcome. Alex in sales was the best. He was extremely knowledgeable, helpful, polite, and as far as I have ascertained, honest. Wow, right!?!? Those are hard qualities to find in anyone today, much less car salesmen. I enjoyed talking to him a great deal. He was very responsive to my repeated inquiries and did everything to accommodate my schedule. The exceptional service he provided earned my business and will motivate me to return in the future.

Richie was great, very professional, and polite! Very informative as well
Everyone did an amazing job particularly Dominic Turner. He was very informative and always kept his promise.
Felt rushed and never really explained anything and the price I wanted to pay was changed to more money.
Gettel of Lakewood has been a pleasure to work with when buying a car.
Great experience from the beginning to the end of the buying process. Much quicker and easier than the previous typical dealership experience. Got a fair value on my trade in, good price for the new truck and was out of the door in less than three hours. Mo was our sales person, pleasant, professional and easy to work with. Will definitely be back when looking for another vehicle.
Great service!
Kassidy Low our salesperson was fantastic! Very customer driven. Love the Rav 4
Gettel Toyota of Lakewood was great to work with! Highly recommend Richie! He will not pressure you into anything! Richie helped us find the car we were looking for and then delivered! No hassle from start to finish! Unlike many other salesman or dealerships. If you are looking for a Toyota give Toyota of Lakewood a try!
The oil change and tire rotation was done in a timely manner and the service rep was helpful.
Great experience buying the new grand highlander with Richie!
Had a great experience and looking forward to enjoying my new ride!
Excellent service every time! Even though it’s a Toyota dealership, we bring our Lexus here because the service is outstanding. The staff is professional, honest, and always takes great care of our car. If the service takes more than two hours, they even provide an Uber ride, which is incredibly convenient. My husband and I have been here several times, and we keep coming back. Highly recommend!
I want to thank Gettel Toyota of Lakewood for their incredible support and outstanding team. From the moment you walk in, you’re treated with professionalism and respect.
What impressed me most is their support of the Richie Bello Institute, a nonprofit organization dedicated to training, recruiting, and placing veterans into meaningful careers in the automotive industry. Their commitment to giving back and investing in those who have served our country speaks volumes about their values.

I honestly can’t say enough good things about my experience at Gettel Toyota Lakewood Ranch. Buying a car can be stressful, but the team made the entire process smooth, straightforward, and enjoyable from start to finish.
A huge thank you to Sam Hassan and Kimo Helal. These two went above and beyond for us. They were patient, honest, never made us feel pressured, and genuinely cared about helping us instead of just making a sale. They took the time to answer every question, worked hard to make everything come together, and made us feel valued throughout the entire process.

Revised 07/08/26 - I had the general manager of Gettel Toyota of Lakewood contact me and ask what they can do to remedy my situation and put me in contact with Evan in service which has gone above and beyond to make me happy and fix what was wrong with the truck! That is why I've adjusted my review accordingly.
Thanks Toyota of Lakewood!

You might have already heard of how shady car salespeople are or how difficult and time consuming buying a car can be. Well let me be the first to say that I’m not an easy customer and I was the one who made the process a lot more complicated than it needed to be.

Eventhough we didn't find the truck we wanted. Trent helped us. He was great! He greeted us with a friendly smile and was really patient. I wish we could've found something. If, we go back, we will definitely ask for him.
The entire team at Toyota of Lakewood was amazing. Made trading and buying an easy process. I an annoying buyer, and they were accommodating and worked hard to make a deal happen. Artem was who handled sale with me, and everyone in finance was a pleasure as well! This is now officially my 5th car with Toyota and I know I’ll return when it’s time again:) thanks guys!
Michael Benton was absolutely AMAZING. We voiced all the features we wanted in our new minivan and he tailored our needs to find our new van. After only 15 minutes of negotiating he had the monthly price and downpayment to exactly what we wanted. Highly recommended coming to see him if you need anything car related. His personality is warm and welcoming and made this process phenomenal.
Was ready to buy a new tacoma and went in to get an appraisal for my trade in. They came back with $4000 UNDER Kelley Blue Book value! They claimed they thought i just wanted to sell it. I was confident that they would be the dealership that I would love but boy was I wrong! After a couple days went by they called and I addressed my concerns, they apologized and said they would find out what happened. Sure enough, never heard back from them! I went to Sarasota Ford and they gave me the full value of my trade ... Read More
